Abstract

This paper presents a model for the reconstruction of the actual meaning of interlingual lacunas. Lacunas as lexical units, present in one culture and absent in another, that hinder the reception of texts and cause difficulties in translation. The clarification of their meaning is possible by analysing the discursive contexts and the discourse fragments in which they occur. Based on the discourse paradigm, a model for the reconstruction of the actual meaning has been developed that consists of individual stages of analysis. According to the assumptions of the proposed model, the case study reconstructs the actual meaning of the lacuna Drachenfutter in German.
